A Week of Fierce Value
May 4 - May 11, 2025 | Tone of the week
We’re in a first-quarter moon week, building toward next Monday’s Scorpio Full Moon. This is a time for action—especially when it comes to shaping a life that feels more beautiful, pleasurable, and deeply valuable. Take tangible steps to mold your world into something that lights you up, both in form and function. Make bold decisions around what you adore, and continue crafting a life aligned with what brings you joy and meaning.
As the Moon waxes toward fullness, particularly over the weekend during the gibbous phase, prioritize connection. Spend time with people you value. Ask questions. Listen closely. Let conversations pollinate your understanding of beauty, worth, and what truly matters.
Let fire fill your voice and self-worth this week.
The Week in Transits
Ceres Crosses the North Node | Monday, May 4th
Our Goddess of the Harvest dwarf planet, Ceres, has just moved from the tail of the ouroboros to its head—a symbolic shift from endings to beginnings. You may begin to feel a renewed passion for the projects, ideas, or creations you’re ready to birth, grow, and bring into fuller maturity.
This week may carry a more artistic or mystical tone, inviting inspiration and imaginative dreaming. But as we move into next week, Ceres enters Aries—the first sign of the zodiac—bringing a wave of fresh, initiatory energy and bold new project ideas. Let this week be about visioning and gathering creative sparks. Clarity and forward motion will come more naturally next week.
Mercury in Taurus | May 10th - 25th
Beginning Saturday morning at 6:15 am MT, Mercury moves into Taurus, where it becomes a central player for the rest of the season, stepping onto the main stage where the Sun is shining its light.
In this earth sign, Mercury seeks steady progress. It’s in a growth phase—ready to connect ideas, anchor insights, and plug your inner world into practical reality.
Follow your curiosity. Let it move you. Gather information that has real value. Talk things through, especially topics related to worth, material life, beauty, and your unique voice. Let your mind be filled with ideas that feel both pleasurable and grounded.
This week leads up to next Monday’s Scorpio Full Moon, and a transition inward. For now, follow the scents, sights, sounds, and textures of spring to take you outward, into the light of the season and life around you.
